We did not do either of the disciplines well,&quot; Bailey said at the post match presentation ceremony after the Kings lost by four wickets to the Knights at the Maharashtra Cricket Association stadium here.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Bailey lavished praise on KKR batsman Andre Russell who bagged the man of the match award for a scintillating 35-ball 66 besides taking two wickets with the ball.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&quot;Full credit to Russell. Russell threw away our plans,&quot; said the Australian, who earlier led front the front with a 45-ball 60 to propel his side almost singlehandedly to a formidable 155\/9. However, the Russell storm put cold water on the Kings&rsquo; efforts as the Knights coasted to victory piling up 159\/6, with 13 balls still remaining.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">He also had some good words for Yusuf Pathan, who supported Russell with a 24-ball 28.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&ldquo;Yusuf reined in his natural game and played along with Russell.&rdquo;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">A dejected Bailey said it was time his team pulled up their socks with some more tough games lined up next.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&ldquo; We need a kick up the backside. We are playing two top teams next - Chennai and Rajasthan. If that doesn&#39;t do it, then nothing will do it.&rdquo;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
